    The U.S. Department of Commerce has determined that ending the countervailing duty order on vertical metal file cabinets from China could lead to the continuation of government subsidies for those items. An expedited review took place because Commerce did not receive adequate responses from the involved parties in China. The final ruling states that without these duties, there could be recurring countervailable subsidies, and interested parties must follow specific procedures regarding sensitive information they handle.

    The U.S. Department of Commerce thinks that if they stop charging extra fees on metal file cabinets from China, it could mean that the Chinese government might help companies pay to make these cabinets.
